Brian Roberts, owner and creator of THC Exposé (formerly known simply as “THC Expo”), garnered national attention in 2009 by producing the show’s acclaimed predecessor on June 13-14 of that year, at the same venue. That initial event was a massive hit, attended by over 30,000 people from all over the world and with over 200 vendors.
The upcoming April 2010 THC Exposé will expand Roberts’ vision as well as his event. The Los Angeles-based promoter has secured 150,000 square feet of space for the weekend experience, which will feature THC and Hemp products, food, fashion, guest speakers, music from live onstage DJs, a special exhibit from the Hemp Museum and twenty hours of “cannabis culture” films in an integrated movie theater, all for the $10.00 per person admission price.
“Initially, it was an Expo,” Roberts explains, “like a World Fair. But in the last year it has become more of an Exposé, since we need to expose the truth about THC. So it is now THC Exposé, not as just a World Fair but more as an economic powerhouse. This industry has been hidden for seventy years, and once it is opened up, it could parallel the entertainment industry.
